Civil / Structural Engineer – Nuclear Fuel Cycle
The Business:
Owing to expanding and challenging opportunities in the Nuclear Fuel Cycle market, we are looking for talented Civil or Structural Engineers with strong technical skills to join our expanding team.
Atkins have been operating in the UK nuclear sector for over 50 years, and today work across all of the current and prospective nuclear licensed sites in the UK. Our clients get to draw on the combined expertise of over 3,000 highly-skilled experts across our business globally, each one passionate about the mission they’ve been handed: to supporting a more sustainable world through low-carbon nuclear energy.
We are a multi-discipline organisation founded on a strong civil engineering heritage, and we operate across the full scope of these projects and at different phases of their lifecycle. A particular strength is our industry leading ability to integrate advanced digital technologies - including state-of-the-art computer-aided engineering (CAE) at the design and analysis stages - to enhance the safety and cost-effectiveness of our work. These cutting-edge tools also help our clients manage their day-to-day activities and operations long after the build is complete.
The Role:
Working within our Nuclear and Power business in Warrington or Whitehaven, you will be working on projects of national and international significance, at the forefront of the decommissioning legacy nuclear plants.

You will cultivate strong working relationships with clients, working with confidence and professionalism at the heart of modern engineering solutions
Flexible working options may be considered including part-time working or job-share arrangements.
The Person:
You will have a strong technical background in civil or structural engineering projects and be looking to develop your project management skillset alongside your technical ability. You will be an agile, lateral thinker with a delivery focus as a questioning mind and the ability to challenge and interrogate in different situations is a key part of this role. You will enjoy building strong and trusted relationships, working with others and will need to be able to interface with clients and understand their needs.
